they also nailed the minimalist vibe better.

personally, i’ve got more important shit going on that what phone people are using. in the case of this phone, it looks like any other number of Android phones with a custom theme.
i’m assuming it’s more than that, but it still looks a bit silly. you can be minimalist and still appreciate things like color.
i don’t think we should act like journalism was in a great place before.
FB capitalized on a weakened industry, but it was the industry itself that was responsible for that state.
they really fucked themselves by not transitioning to the new market, instead insisting that it was the customers that were wrong. all these years later, i’ve yet to see a news outlet that would be worth the subscription fee. they’re mostly recycling content from other, free sites anyway.
once the older crowd passes, traditional news outlets are done for. the ones that remain will be the ones that were providing the content all along.
phones and tablets are fine for consuming media. they are noticeably worse at creating it.
i couldn’t imagine typing out long responses, sometimes with links, with a phone or tablet.
as for how many consumers still use PCs, hard to say. i know i don’t go a single day without using mine. whether it’s to play a game, type up a guide for someone to do something, or whatever else. on the flip of that, i also own a ultrabook that i use when i’m away from home. it’s capable of doing many things, but it’s no where near as capable as my desktop setup.
let’s be real here.
none of us are happy with the outcome.
pretty much ALL of us would have settled for $2.4 million.
that’s because you are the product.
absolutely.
not every joke is going to land with everyone. sometimes they’re not even jokes, just pointing out absurdities.
if they don’t land with you, i wouldn’t stress it. sometimes the humor is extremely nerdy. it’s like the Far Side or Monty Python. it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, and that’s OK.
Border Police opened fire indiscriminately at a vehicle that tried to burst through a checkpoint.
i like how they try to make it sound like the Israelis fired for no reason whatsoever, yet the vehicle tried to run through a checkpoint. that gets you shot at a large number of borders.
it’s sad that the little girl died. i think we can all agree on that.
i’m all for the government breaking up corps, or stopping mergers, but this one needed to happen. however much it cost to get Bobby Kotick gone, is a net positive.
besides, we’re talking about spending Microsoft’s money. they fucking got it. so what’s the fuss?
if the deal had been blocked, how would that have been better for the industry? also, probably the more important question, how would that have been better for the consumer?
probably not a good idea to attack them and take hostages then.
really? i’ve been using SXM for over a decade. i’ve never seen a company that is so desperate to keep their customers. they’ll do pretty much anything you ask of them.
tired of paying the bill? then don’t. they’ll cut it off after a few months. then they’ll call and be willing to forgive the past bill, cut you back on, and you probably won’t even have to pay it for another month or two.
whenever whatever deal i’m on expires, i simply call them up and tell them i’m thinking about cancelling. they’ll usually offer something like service for $5 a month, if i’ll pay for 6 months at a time or something.
i’ve never had even a hint of trouble with them in the last decade.
most of the things they’re known for, they didn’t invent. but they’ve always been better at packaging these ideas and tech up, and marketing them well.
it’s kind of like how Data and Lore’s retarded brother was called B-4.
same. there seems to be a lot of people that don’t realize some things don’t get done, not because they’re impossible, but because as soon as they do it a company will put a stop to it.
it’s like cracking a Xbox or something. the very next patch will render the method obsolete and nonviable. when i heard this workaround was coming for Android, my immediate reaction was how long it would last before Apple just changed something so that it doesn’t work.
the real shame being that he died peacefully in his bed.
this is basically why i ditched android and switched to iphones.
at the end of the day i need my phone to be a phone more than i need complete control over everything.
same with the PC OS. i like Linux, i like Windows, under some circumstances i even like MacOS. at the end of the day it really doesn’t matter what OS i’m using, so long as the software i need to run, runs.
Bing gets you answers fast.
they didn’t say they’d be the right answer tho.
if you click the link to show other pieces he’s wrote, he heavily seems to favor a number of different ‘opinions’ on things. he’s obviously pro Russian. he downplays the role of Saudi Arabia during 9/11, while suggesting that the current administration has allowed the relationship to wither on the vine. he has a piece about how much of a threat Hamas is to the US.
dude’s clearly a shitstain, and most of his writing has a incredibly clear agenda.
it’s been awhile since i dove into Linux, but last time i dabbled i was liking Kubuntu.
